Going to where?????

Roundtrip to where? What time of year are you going? Air fare changes daily. I would check orbitz.com, cheapfares.com, expedia.com, etc. Also, connection destinations and time of day help determine cost.

sorry, going to provo prob. in late summer. tryed orbitz out of cincy=$700+, or atl $541. are there charters??

Sorry but these prices sound ok for Provo. There aren't alot of carriers servicing the Turks and Caicos and so prices are a little higher. If you have some extra time, might consider driving to FLA, you can get alot cheaper fares from there but you do waste time driving. US Air will begin service in Nov and their fares will probably be a litte more reasonable. Also check with Air Jamaica. Have a great trip

Florida fares are not that much cheaper. Paid $450 R/T from Orlando in April. Believe Air Canada has a charter on Sat from Toronto. For Air Jamacia you have to go thru Montego Bay. Bahamas air flies from Nassau to Provo on Tues, Thur and Sun. You would probably have to overnight in Nassau on the way down. Flight leaves at 9:15 AM. US Airways is supposed to start flying to Provo out of Charlottte N.C. in Nov. You might check for promotions

you can always register with the travel sites (Expedia, Travelocity, ETC)and put in a certain amount and if and when the price drops or gets to a certain price they will automatically e-mail you and let you know

US Air wants $950 round trip from Chicago next spring. Guess this is what we should expect to pay in order to get somewhere remote yet a "hot spot". Hey Howard!!

Bud Jul 17th, 2002 06:52 PM

Isn't Provo worth the extra airfare?

Howard Jul 18th, 2002 05:28 AM

You might check out Orbitz again. US airways is having a sale. $131 from Charlotte to Miami. Don't know what the airfare is from Miami to Provo. It occasionally goes on sale with AA for $169 round trip. Actually when you add taxes etc the $541 fare is probably pretty good

Check www.aa.com. They just posted Caribbean fare sales good thru mid Dec. Believe you have to buy by 7 August. $350 R/T from Washington and $203 R/T from Orlando (normally $450-$500). Really good buys.
